What's the one question that you're most looking forward to asking God, once you get to Heaven?

This'll trigger some but:

>Why no fornication

I don't do it because Bible, but that's it. I've heard arguments against it to do with practical human reasons, but in the same vein as "why is there suffering in this world" I ask "Why not make it compatible with humanity". It just feels strange that innate urges common to all of humanity are sinful, when done out of a very small range of allowable instances

Because marriage is sacred and sex is when you make being in your image and likeness. Fornication and sin defiles sanctity of these, sort of speak.

Fair amount to potentially unpack in this question here. Things to remember are: sex is compatible with humanity, it's the abuse of it's proper place that is not. Similarly the innate urges are not sinful in themselves, they are God given. It is certain application of those urges that are sinful, applications to which we freely choose to pursue or not. Sex is powerful for a reason, to the extent that if it isnt kept in it's proper place or respected as it shpuld be, it will be destructive. See vid related for a commentary on its proper place and why it works.

It also may seem so much harder to avoid engaging in sexual immorality in this day and age because of the prevailing approach to sex in our modern culture. It is likely that other times and societies didnt/don't get it quite right either (we're in a fallen world after all) but I would doubt the scale and severity of sexual addiction (to sex, porn, masturbation, serial datingwith a view to sex, hookers, strip clubs etc etc everything we do compulsively, conciously or not, with a view to achieving sexual arousal, excitement and relase) has ever been as great as it is now. So it might be good to remember that in past times the issue of reigning in urges and exercising self dicipline would have been much more common and easy than today.

if i may, brother - another aspect to sex is the spiritual union that happens between a man and a woman when they become 'one flesh' as mentioned all the way back in Genesis 2:24

this marriage between 2 image-bearers of God reflects something of the union between The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - and also between Christ and His Bride, the Church

this is also alluded to several times throughout the Old Testament, when God calls His people - and so His condemnation of a wayward Israel is often represented as Infidelity and Harlotry

but most telling of all for the believer under the New Testament would be 1Corinthians 6:16 where in warning against Sexual Immorality we are told that uniting oneself sexually to another outside of wedlock is to become 'one flesh' with a prostitute

> Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.”

this is a dire warning for the believer, for his body is made for the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit - and thus made the abode of the 3 Persons of God - and what union does Light have with darkness?

it's possible that your video covered that, but i thought this the most important aspect to fornication and wanted make sure it was highlighted
